  • Asked by Louise from Joppam,md
    04/08/2019
    Q
    Is Permethrin SFR effective against carpet beetles and safe for spraying on carpets?
    I don't have pets or children in the house
    A

    Yes, Permethrin SFR 36.8% can be used for carpet beetle larvae. You will need to use 1 2/3 fl. oz. for each gallon of water to get a 0.5% ratio. When using this product for carpet beetles the label states to apply the spray evenly to rugs, carpets, along baseboards and edges of carpeting, under carpeting, rugs and furniture, in closets, on shelving, and wherever else these insects are seen or suspected. For the best control of immature stages, we recommend adding an IGR (Insect Growth Regulator) to your insecticide, such as NyGuard EZ1.

  • Asked by Robert from Blue Bell, Pa
    07/11/2012
    Q
    How much Permethrin SFR do you add to a gallon of water for outside tick treatment on lawns?
    A
    You should use the higher usage rate of Permethrin SFR for heavy infestations, faster knockdowns and longer lasting residuals and lower usage rates for maintenance sprays. You will need to use higher volumes of water to get the product over thick, dense vegetation. If you are treating your lawn for ticks we recommend you use the higher specified usage rate of 0.8 fl oz for 1,000 sq ft using whatever volume of water is needed. If you are treating up close to your home you are permitted to use the .5% emulsion (1 2/3 fl. oz. per gallon of water) per 1,000 sq ft as a perimeter treatment.

    Q
    If I spray my basement only with Permethrin SFR, will my cat and I have to leave the house?
    A

  • Asked by Susan from Ca
    06/23/2015
    Q
    Can you use Permethrin on trees for red turpintine beetles and western pine beetles?
    A
    Healthy trees can be protected before the beetles attack by topically spraying them with a product called Permethrin SFR. The tree should be sprayed from the ground to 15 ft up the trunk to prevent future infestations.  Unfortunately, there is no easy solution when it comes to pine beetles. Infected trees should be cut down (before the newly hatched beetles fly out of the trees in the spring/summer) and the wood burned or chipped, while other still healthy trees should be sprayed annually to protect them. Because of the natural boring behavior of the beetle they are protected from topically applied insecticides and systemic insecticides (those injected into the tree or applied as a root drench) have proven ineffective for pine beetle infestations.

  • Asked by Dennis from Clinton
    06/14/2017
    Q
    Can you use Permethrin SFR 36.8% on pastures that you have horses in?
    A

    Permethrin SFR should not be used on pastures where horses or any livestock graze. Very few products are listed as safe to use in grazing areas. Essentria All Purpose is one of our top products that will not harm the animals and will cover all the same insects the Permethrin SFR covers on its label.

    07/10/2015
    Q
    Can you use Permethrin SFR 36.8 on vegetables?
    I read on your site that the only difference between 36.8% permethrin and 10% is the strength. Can I dilute the 36.8% enough to use on vegetables?
    A

    No, Permethrin SFR 36.8% cannot be used on any type of edibles.

    Martins Permethrin 10% is not labeled to be used on edibles either.

    You can view our Edible Garden Products Here. Be sure to consult the product labels for approved uses and plants. We can also assist you by telephone at 866-581-7378 M-F 9a-5p EST.

    07/16/2014
    Q
    How long after dog is dipped in Permethrin solution can it be given a regular bath?
    A
    It is recommended to wait two weeks after the treatment of Permethrin SFR 36.8% to bathe your dog or you will simply remove the insecticide. Permethrin can be reapplied every two weeks if needed so we would recommend that you bathe your dog prior to the Permethrin SFR 36.8%.

  • Asked by Cardella from St. Louis, Mo
    11/19/2015
    Q
    Does Permethrin SFR 36.8% kill chiggers?
    I have chiggers inside my home. Can I use Permethrin SFR to treat?
    A

    Permethrin SFR 36.8% is not labeled for chiggers and may not provide adequate results for you. Onslaught insecticide is labeled for chiggers and can be used both indoors and outdoors as a broadcast spray. Chiggers are not known to infest structures. Chiggers are most likely outdoors in your yard. Many people are lead to believe that the infestation is indoors because they do not feel the effects of the chigger bites right away and then are lead to believe they are being bitten at a later time. If you feel strongly that you are being bitten inside by something we would urge you to get a sample of the pest and have it professionally identified by an entomologist. You can find an entomologist in your area by contacting your local cooperative extension office.

    Q

    I want to spray my yard for ticks, fleas, and grub worms (Japanese beetles) and I want to be sure that the proper dose of Permethrin won't harm the earthworms.
    A

    Permethrin SFR 36.8% is not really selective, so it is possible that it could kill beneficials such as earthworms if they were to come in contact with a treated area.

    Q
    Is Permethrin SFR 36.8% effective for killing squash vine borers?
    I need to know if this will kill squash vine borers.
    A

    Permethrin SFR is not labeled for use on any edibles.

    We would recommend using Hi-Yield Indoor/Outdoor Broad Use Insecticide. It is labeled for various insects, including squash bugs and is safe for use on listed edibles. This product does have the same active ingredient as Permethrin SFR, however, it is at a lower concentration. That product cannot be diluted down and used on edibles.
